HEAD-REST FOR SHAVlNG-CHAIRS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 749,184, dated January 12, 1904.

' Application filed January 21, 1901. Renewed June 25, 1903. Serial No. 163,098. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CARL EUGEN HAEGE, a subject of the German Emperor,and a resident of Munich, Germany, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Head-Rests for Shaving-Chairs, of which the following is a specification.

This present invention relates to an improved head-rest for shaving-chairs, the object being to avoid the objectionable features of the usual devices of this kind, as will be pointed out hereinafter.

The invention consists in the construction and novel combination of parts, fully described and claimed hereinafter.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a device constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. 2 shows the interior mechanism of the device. Fig. 3 shows a side view of the box with the bottom cover Z), the rollers 0 c, and their bearings d removed. Fig. 4 shows a front and an end View of the removable bearings d. Fig. 5 shows a front view of the wall 6, furnished with grooves for the fasteners attached to the box a. Fig. 6 shows one of the rollers with a crank e fitted thereto.

Referring by letters to the drawings, a represents a metal open box, preferably made of sheet metal padded and covered with leather. The rear side of said box is closed by means of a removable wall 6. Arranged within this box a are two rollers c 0, rotating in removable bearings d, provided with two grooves 0Z, engaging the grooves a of the side walls a of the aforesaid metal box. These rollers are rotated by means of a handle or crank e, fitted thereto.

Wound upon the lower roll or shaft 0 is a long band f of suitable materialsuch as fine cloth, paper, &c.and the free end of which is attached to the upper rollers a, so that said bandf is unrolled from the lower roller 0 and wound upon the upper roller 0 when the latter is rotated by means of the handle 6. The band f passes from the lower roll 0 over the guideroller g, thence over the outer surface of the padded box a, and around a second guide-roll g, to be wound upon the upper roll 0.

The result obtained by the invention is that the hair-dresser has but to turn the upper roll 0, by means of the handle 6, after he has served a customer, in order to bring a fresh portion of material upon the head-rest for the next customer, whereby injurious effects are avoided.

This device is completed by means of a bottom cover or wall I), which incloses the rollers 0 0 inside the box a. This wall I) is provided with openings 6, engaging the fasteners a, which when they are passed through the openings I) are turned inwardly. To this cover is fastened the usual rack attached to the barbers c lair.

Having fully described my invention,what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

In a device of the character described, the combination with a suitably-shaped box, of two rolls journaled within the same a band of suitable material adapted to be unrolled from one roll and wound upon another roll; said band extending over the outer surface of the box, and means for rotating the rolls from the outside, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

i In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two witnesses.

CARL EUGEN HAEGE.
